Chapter 395: Vicissitudes
Shui Yiyuan's face was shrouded in the robe, and Ye couldn't see his expression, but he obviously felt that Shui Yiyuan's eyes changed and quickly returned to normal. Obviously, his words have made this person have changed in his heart, but this change is not obvious, but it is enough to make Ye Guan suspicious.
Agreeing to Shui Yiyuan's proposal, Ye Guan was forced to put such a threat in front of him, even if everyone in the Dongwang Mansion was not afraid of death, but after death, he was resurrected and became someone else's puppet, which was something that no one could see from afar, and even had some fear in his heart.
Ye looked at Kou Long standing on the side, looking at his pale face, and a strong sadness rose from the bottom of his heart. This feeling quickly turned into anger in his heart, and the hatred for Tianqing City had already entered his bones.
Hatred jumped over, the calmer he was, in the face of such a powerful Tianqing City, Ye Guan had a strong sense of powerlessness, and the entire Dongwang Mansion was like an ant in front of Tianqing City, kneading people. Now he can only agree to Tianqing City's request to save the lives of the high-level officials of the Eastern Palace, that's all. Moreover, when he joined Tianqing City, he could also know the plan and purpose of Tianqing City more clearly, which was also a good thing for the Eastern Palace.
Shui Yi looked at Ye Guan faintly for a while before he spoke: "You have decided, you are ready to go with me." ”
Ye Guan frowned slightly, looking at Shui Yiyuan, he didn't know what Tianqing City's intention was to force himself to join with such a cumbersome handwriting, if at the very beginning, they showed such advanced means, things might be easier, threatening himself with the lives of all the high-level officials of the East Prince's Mansion, even if he was unwilling, he would eventually agree. It seems that forcing themselves to join Tianqing City is not their main goal at all.
They launched an attack on Zhuan Fortress, most likely for other purposes.
"Don't rush yet. Ye Guan said softly: "What about the soldiers in Zhu'an City now, and what about the forces of the Eastern Wangfu in the enclave? ”
"They can leave on their own, and we won't stop them. Shui Yiyuan said softly: "What we have to do, you can't understand it now, come with me, everything will have an answer." ”
Ye Guan was silent, the more urgent the other party was, the more he felt that there was something wrong with this.
Shui Yiyuan naturally saw Ye Guan's hesitation, and only heard him speak: "Since you have decided, I can give you time to arrange the things after that, after entering Tianqing City, you and Dongwangfu will no longer have anything to do with each other." Arrange the things now, and just go with me. ”
The tone of these words was obviously not as peaceful as before, slightly threatening, Ye Guan heard the threat in it, and his heart was still shocked, although he was also prepared in his heart, after joining Tianqing City, the affairs of the East Wangfu might not be able to manage so much, but these words came out of Shui Yiyuan's mouth, but it still made Ye Guan's heart tense.
"What if I don't leave with you now?" Ye Guan looked away from the water, and his tone became tougher, the East Wangfu was Ye Guan's belief and illusion all along, so he gave up easily, which was simply impossible.
"Not how. Shui Yiyuan said: "If you don't go with me, I will leave on my own, but I can't guarantee what will happen later." As he spoke, Shui Yi glanced at the dragon who was standing on the side without leaving a trace, and the meaning was self-evident.
Ye Guan frowned, thinking twice in his heart, but finally nodded and said, "Okay, I promise, but you have to give me some time, after arranging things here, I still have to meet someone." ”
"You handle it yourself, whoever you want to see, I will take you to see it. It can't be too long, three days at most. Shui Yiyuan's tone was calm, but Ye Guan heard an undoubted meaning in this sentence.
At this point, he has no choice, and now the forces of Dongwangfu stationed in the enclave are still in the hinterland, and they can't be evacuated in a short time, now
If you tear your face with Tianqing City, you may face a situation from which you will never recover.
He nodded lightly and said: "Okay, three days will be three days, since I promised you to join Tianqing City, all the actions of the East Wangfu in the future, Tianqing City will not interfere anymore, and the East Wangfu will evacuate the enclave in the fastest time, and will not enter from now on." ”
"Whatever you want. Shui Yiyuan said lightly: "I don't interfere in anything, you just go and arrange it." In three days, I will go to you, and then I will ......" said, Shui Yiyuan glanced at Ye Guan more meaningfully, and the words that were not said behind were self-evident.
Before Ye Guan could say anything, Shui Yiyuan's robe waved, and the blazing red light rolled up and disappeared in an instant. After the red mang disappeared, there was no water in the house, and there was no figure of Kou Long, these two people seemed to have never appeared.
Ye Guan stood in place in a daze, his mind was confused, he was becoming more and more confused about the purpose of Tianqing City, before he thought that he had guessed the plan of Tianqing City, they planned to use the East Wangfu as a springboard to unite the entire enclave, and then attack the Qitian Empire in one fell swoop, but now it seems that this may not be Tianqing City's plan at all, or it is part of their plan, it is not worth mentioning at all.
The East Wangfu is only with Tianqing City, it may not even be a stumbling block, they really have to get serious, I am afraid that overnight, the high-level of the East Wangfu will die, and then they will be resurrected by them in this strange way for their use. With such means, they can easily control the forces of the entire Dongwang Mansion, and with the current ability of the Dongwang Mansion, there is no way to resist at all.
Ye Guan's pale face suddenly flashed in his mind, thinking that Emperor Yuan Martial Emperor Yongning might also become like this in the future, he felt a deep chill in his heart, he would definitely not let such a thing happen, there are still three days to go, he must arrange it well, take everything into account as much as possible, and leave a back road for the East Palace.
After sitting for a while, Ye Guan got up and immediately summoned the soldiers in Zhu'an City, and the generals in the city, led by Tu Xingping, came to Ye Guan's place one after another, waiting for Ye Guan's order.
Ye Guan ordered all the sergeants to evacuate Zhu'an City immediately, and immediately notified Ren Zijin, who had opened the road, to let him return the same way, and all the sergeants acted in unison and evacuated Zongqiu Mountain from the incoming route.
As soon as the order was given, the generals naturally looked at each other and fought fiercely for a few days, especially after last night's battle, everyone knew that now the battle in Zhu'an City had entered a dead end, and there might only be two roads: attacking and defending to the death, and returning from the original road, they would not be afraid of the enemy's ambush?
Ye Guan naturally knew what the generals were thinking, but he didn't explain much, and no one could disobey the military order. At the same time, because Kou Long died in battle, Ding Jiang was injured and unconscious, and Ren Zijin and Tu Xingping were generals in the army, leading all the soldiers to retreat, and they must return to the Blackstone Bridge within three days, and join forces with the Blackstone Bridge guard Sha Shaoyuan, defend the Blackstone Bridge, wait for all the soldiers to withdraw, and then obey the command of General Sha Shaoyuan.
After giving the order, Ye glanced at General Tu Xingping, who wanted to stop talking, a smile hung on the corner of his mouth, stepped forward, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said softly: "The rest of the matter depends on you, and you will evacuate with all the soldiers." ”
Tu Xingping didn't speak, looked at Ye Guan, and nodded firmly.
Ye Guan smiled, stopped talking, and ordered the generals to act separately, while he paced out of the courtyard and went straight to the street of Zhu'an City, he wanted to take another look at the city that had changed his fate before leaving. Since coming to Zhu'an City, everything has been developing in a weird direction, and it is becoming more and more uncontrollable. But the matter has come to this, and Ye Guan can only face it.
Walking forward slowly, Ye Guan heard a footstep and followed him gently, he didn't pay attention to it, just walked forward so quietly.
The front of Jukan Castle
The door, shut. The soldiers moved quickly, the order had just been given, and now the sergeants had already begun to prepare. On the wide streets of Zhu'an City, apart from the occasional detachment of sergeants, there are only dilapidated streets.
Last night's fireball fell, almost the entire Zhu'an City was ignited, after a night of fighting, the current Zhu'an City, dilapidated, almost no intact buildings, everywhere you see, a mess, the scorched black burned by the flames filled the entire city, the air is filled with a dilapidated smell, like the mood of Ye Guan now.
Walking forward slowly, a few days ago, Zhu'an City may still be full of laughter, crowded, flowers, the people of Zhu'an City are living their own lives, pursuing what they want to pursue, guarding what they want to protect, living and working in peace and contentment.
A few days later, the originally prosperous city was already in ruins, and the people in the city were all spared, all of them were killed by Tianqing City, Ye Guan stood quietly at the largest intersection in Zhu'an City, and the left and right were all buildings that had been burned by the flames, and now they were in ruins.
He closed his eyes and imagined the events of this place before, and a deep sadness rose in his heart.
The footsteps behind him also stopped, stopping not far behind Ye Guan, without stepping forward or speaking.
"Do you know what I'm going to do? Don't follow me, go back with the troops. Ye Guan let out a long sigh, looked back behind him, not far behind him, Xu Bao was wearing a guard suit, standing quietly, hearing Ye Guan's words, Xu Bao grinned at Ye Guan.
"I am the commander-in-chief's soldier, where you go, I will go. Xu Bao chuckled softly.
"Let's go back. Ye Guan said in a low voice: "What I want to do, you can't help, follow it, you can only die." ”
"When I came out this time, my subordinates didn't plan to go back alive. Xu Bao still smiled and replied: "I did the thing of betraying the little prince, Dongwangfu, I can't go back." After arriving in the enclave, I betrayed the Northern Palace, and I can't go back to my hometown. ”
"If you can't go back, your family in the Beiwang Mansion may all die. Ye Guan looked at Xu Bao quietly: "Go back, you are inherently dead, but you can save them, isn't that the meaning of people living." ”
When Xu Bao heard this, he shook his head with a smile and said, "You don't have to say it, my family, I'm afraid it's long gone." Up to now, I haven't heard from them for four years, and every time I ask the people of the Northern Palace, they will only be perfunctory. Not only me, but the relatives of all the people who may be lurking in the Dongwang Mansion will end up like this. ”
Ye Guan was silent and did not speak, he had expected such a result a long time ago.
When the Northern Prince's Mansion arranged for Xu Bao to calculate Huang Yuanwu, he must have planned to give up his chess piece, how could his family live if he was an outcast. From the moment Xu Bao was selected to be the fine work of the Northern Palace, his fate was already doomed.
He looked at Xu Bao, and after a while, he sighed deeply and said, "Okay, follow as you go, it's just that the road ahead is long, there will be a lot of things to do, and I won't have time to take care of you." ”
"Don't worry, the Commander-in-Chief won't cause you any trouble. Xu Bao smiled at Ye Guan and saluted respectfully.
Ye Guan nodded lightly and said, "Go and bring two horses, let's go out of the city." ”
"Honorable Order!"
Xu Bao answered, turned around and went to the camp to get the war horse. Ye Guan sighed deeply and paced to the gate of Zhu'an City.
At this moment, the city gate has been opened, and the sergeants on the left and right are ready to open, seeing Ye Guan saluting one after another, Ye Guan nodded lightly, walked out of the door, and turned back to look at the head of Zhu'an City.
Three vicissitudes of life are written on the city plaque, I don't know how much wind and rain it has experienced,
After a while, Xu Bao took the war horse, and the two turned over on their horses and went straight to Changhui City.
Before leaving, Ye Guan must see Huang Yongning.
